33:10-12 Reason 2: God's Will Prevails. The God who made the world also rules it according to his own purposes. In the creation account God's purposes always prevail; so it is after the creation: there is no power able to oppose God successfully, because all these powers derive their being and power from God. In view of such majesty, v. 12 stands out: God deserves the love of all mankind, and rules them, and yet there is one particular people whom he has chosen as his heritage, namely, Israel (see note on 28:6-9). It is clear from the call of Abram (Gen. 12:1-3) that Israel was called to be God's means by which the whole world would come to know him.
